THEIR TABLETS OF STONE
They think that hosing it down
won't make it wet but
they've been wet behind the ears
for a long time now
They're more naïve than an optimist
facing a firing squad
it's a dead certainty that something
is going to go terribly wrong
They take the subway train because
they think it's safer than walking
they hate buses don't like overcrowding
shopping in Oxford Street isn't their thing
They say the electricity won't go down
like it did in nineteen seventy four but it will
then all their computers and mobile things
and even their tablets of stone will be silent
